CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

On behalf of the board of CCT Tech International Limited, I am pleased to announce the interimresults of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2007.

The financial period under review was the most challenging and difficult period the Group hadever endured since its group restructuring in 2002. Due to the slowing US economy, keen marketcompetition and acute shortage of labour in our Guangdong factories, the Group’s turnover for thesix months ended 30 June 2007 dropped by 16.6% to HK$1,562 million. As a result of the difficultbusiness environment, high material prices and the continued increase in the labour and otherproduction costs of our Guangdong factories, the Group reported a loss of HK$56 million for thesix months ended 30 June 2007, as compared to a profit of HK$73 million in the correspondingprevious period. Excluding the expense of HK$13 million relating to the granting of share optionsin June 2007, loss attributable to shareholders would have been approximately HK$43 million forthe period.

INTERIM DIVIDEND

In order to conserve cash for ongoing business operations and future growth, the directors do notrecommend payment of an interim dividend for the six months ended 30 June 2007 (30 June 2006:nil).

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

During the period under review, the business environment worsened considerably and had anadverse impact on our performance. The downturn of the US property market served to dampenthe US economy and consumer spending. In Europe, the market suffered from excess inventory.The combined impact of such factors meant that in the first half of the year, orders from these twokey markets slowed down. On the other hand, the acute shortage of labour in the Guangdong

c h a i r m a n ’ s l e t t e r

Province became even more severe and adversely affected the production output of ourGuangdong factories. As a result of these adverse factors, turnover decreased by 16.6% fromHK$1,873 million for the six months ended 30 June 2006 to HK$1,562 million for the six monthsended 30 June 2007.

Despite the adverse business environment, the Group continued to maintain its leading position asthe world’s largest ODM manufacturer of cordless phones in terms of volume. The Group hascontinued to extend its reach to new customers and expand its geographical footprint to emergingmarkets. We have further strengthened our relationship with all existing customers. Our closealliance with global renowned brand-name companies provides a solid foundation for futuregrowth.

In the first half of the year, our key products of 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz cordless phones and DECTcordless phones continued to sell well. As we mentioned in our 2006 annual report, the Group isthe first manufacturer to launch DECT 6.0 models in the US market. In the first half of the year,the sales of DECT 6.0 models witnessed further growth and we believe that these products willbecome the mainstay telecommunication products in the US market.

The Group has always ranked innovation as a core element of its overall business strategy. Manyinnovative hi-tech products including VoIP cordless phones, WiFi phones, cordless phones withSkype feature and broadband cordless phones have been developed by our R&D teams and will berolled out in the next few months and in 2008. Other than the consumer telecom products market,we have been actively pursuing business opportunities in the commercial communications market.Our innovative SOHO products, multi-line cordless phones and cordless conference box systemwill be launched in the near future. We believe that the in roads made into the commercial marketwill open up many business opportunities for future growth and increased profitability.

The Group recorded a loss of HK$56 million in the first half of the year due to a number ofadverse factor. Firstly, fierce competition in the consumer telecom products market has led to ourcustomers demanding ever more competitive prices for our products making it increasinglydifficult for us to maintain the margin levels we enjoyed in previous years. The Group’s strategyof developing high margin hi-tech products has, however, helped to mitigate some of the pressurein this regard. Secondly, prices of materials and components rose sharply due to a buoyant Chineseeconomy and high oil prices (which affects prices of plastic resins). With keen competition,however, we were unable to pass on the increase in material costs to consumers by increasing ourselling prices. Thirdly, the continued shortage of labour and electricity in the Guangdong Provincefurther worsened which had a major adverse impact on the production output of our factories inthis area. In the first half of the year, we were not able to hire and retain enough workers tooperate on an optimum level and labour turnover rate was high. As a result, production efficiency

suffered and certain customer’s orders were cancelled or delayed. In order to retain and hireadditional workers, the Group has significantly increased the wage levels of workers in ourGuangdong factories. The increase in the wages of workers has, in turn, raised the productioncosts of the Group thereby affecting the Group’s profitability. The increase of production costs inour Guagndong factories due to the above factors and further fueled by the appreciation of theRenminbi have combined to exert considerable pressure on the Group’s profit margins, resulting ina first operating loss since the Group acquired the telecom product business from CCT Telecom in2003.

The impact of the production issues mentioned above would have been higher had the Groupfailed to implement various measures to control costs, improve efficiency and enhance its level ofproduction automation. To resolve the production issues in the long term, the Group has alreadybuilt new production facilities in Chaoyang City, Liaoning Province. The first phase of the newChaoyang factory has already opened and commenced trial production in June 2007. We expectthe production of the new factory in Chaoyang to ramp up early next year. We expect that our newfactory in Chaoyang will contribute towards easing the production issues of our Guangdongfactories by delivering significant costs savings to the Group thereby improving the Group’sprofitability in the coming years.

DISPOSAL OF CCT TECH SHARES

As noted in the 2006 annual report, an indirect subsidiary of CCT Telecom sold in total13,800,000,000 shares in the Company to Deutsche Bank and three other third party investors inMay 2006 in order to restore the public float of the Company. Put options have been granted byCCT Telecom to Deutsche Bank in respect of such shares sold. In the first half of the year,Deutsche Bank and the three investors sold in total 13,426,000,000 shares in the Company to otherpublic investors on the stock market and the said put options in relation to the shares sold byDeutsche Bank and the three investors have been cancelled.

During the period from 28 May 2007 to 1 June 2007, CCT Telecom, through its wholly-ownedsubsidiary, sold a total of 15,009,360,000 shares (the “Shares Sale”) in the Company on the stockmarket. As a result of the Shares Sale, the CCT Telecom Group’s shareholding in the Companydropped to approximately 51% as at 30 June 2007.

OUTLOOK

The outlook of the US economy is uncertain. It is believed that the worst of the US propertymarket has yet to come and there appears to be no immediate signs of recovery. The subprime loancrisis has resulted in world-wide credit jitters which has hit global financial markets. As a result,

c h a i r m a n ’ s l e t t e r

the US economy has slowed down and consumer spending has dampened. We anticipate that thebusiness environment in the second half of the year will remain difficult with no immediate signsof improvement. We also anticipate that the continued production issues and rise in costs and theprobable further appreciation of Renminbi will remain our key challenges and affect theprofitability of the Group. However, the Group will continue to strengthen R&D capabilities todevelop and roll out high margin hi-tech advance products to remain competitive. Our strongassociation with major brand-name companies and our successful expansion into the commercialcommunication market and new and emerging markets will provide us with a solid platform forgrowth in revenue and profitability. We expect that the new Chaoyang factory will ease labourconstraints of our Guangdong factories and will deliver significant cost savings. We are confidentthe Group will weather-out the current difficult business environment.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

On behalf of the Board, I would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation andgratitude to the senior management and all staff for their support, hard work and dedication overthe years. We would also like to express our sincere thanks to our shareholders, bankers, investors,customers and suppliers for their continued encouragement and strong support to the Group.

DISCUSSION ON FINANCIAL RESULTS

Turnover of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2007 amounted to HK$1,562 millionwhich represents a decrease of approximately 16.6% as compared to the corresponding period. Thedecrease in turnover was caused mainly by decrease of customers’ orders, reduction of averageselling prices of products and cancellation of certain orders and delay of shipments due to shortageof labour.

The Group reported a loss of HK$56 million for the period ended 30 June 2007, as compared to aprofit of HK$73 million in previous corresponding period. The loss for the six months ended 30June 2007 was due to the combined effects of reduction of average selling prices of products, highmaterial prices, rise in wages for workers in our Guangdong factories, and appreciation ofRenminbi. Excluding the expense of HK$13 million relating to the granting of share optionsduring the six months ended 30 June 2007, loss would have been approximately HK$43 million.

The US market remained the largest market of the Group, accounting for approximately 51.3%(corresponding period: 55.8%) of the Group’s turnover in the first half of the year. The drop in oursales to US market was mainly due to the decrease in customers’ orders stemming from aweakened economy, the fall in the average selling price and the shortage of labour in ourGuangdong factories which affected our production. The sales to Asia Pacific region accounted forapproximately 34.3% (corresponding period: 25.0%) of the Group’s turnover, reporting a growthof 14.3%. As a result of excess inventory of the European market, our sales to Europe marketdecreased by 37.5% and contributing approximately 14.4% (corresponding period: 19.2%) of theGroup’s total turnover.

DISCUSSION ON FINANCIAL POSITION

Total non-current assets increased by approximately 2.3% during the period, attributable mainly tothe additions of machinery, toolings, moulds for the existing Guangdong factories and for the newChaoyang factory and the capitalization of deferred development costs during the period offset bythe depreciation of fixed assets and the amortisation of the deferred development costs.

Inventory increased by 42.9% due to seasonal factor as raw materials were accumulated to preparefor production peak season.

Financial asset at fair value through profit or loss as at 30 June 2007 represents our investment inequity-linked deposits in order to earn a higher yield return from the surplus fund.

Increase in cash and cash equivalents was mainly attributable to cash generated from operationsand the cash receipts from the exercise of share options during the six months ended 30 June 2007.

Non-current liabilities increased by approximately 54.5% to HK$51 million as at 30 June 2007.The increase in non-current liabilities was mainly due to the new bank loans raised to fund capitalexpenditure and working capital for our manufacturing operations.

Shareholders’ funds increased from HK$1,182 million to HK$1,196 million as at 30 June 2007arising from the issue of new shares from the exercise of share options and partly offset by the lossattributable to the equity holders of the Company during the first half of the year.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURE AND COMMITMENTS

During the period under review, the Group incurred capital expenditure amounted toapproximately HK$68 million, including the expenditure of approximately HK$33 million foradditions of production facilities in the PRC and approximately HK$35 million for purchase oftools, moulds, plant and machinery and furniture and office equipment of the Group.

As at 30 June 2007, capital commitment contracted by the Group but not yet provided for in theaccounts amounted to approximately HK$35 million (31 December 2006: HK$33 million), whichwas mainly related to the capital expenditure in relation to the manufacturing operations. Thecapital commitment will be funded by internal resources.

TREASURY MANAGEMENT

The Group employs a conservative approach to cash management and risk control. To achievebetter risk control and efficient fund management, the Group’s treasury activities are centralised.

During the period under review, the Group’s receipts were mainly denominated in US dollars, withsome in Hong Kong dollars and the Euros. Payments were mainly made in Hong Kong dollars, USdollars and Renminbi and some made in Euros. Cash was generally placed in short-term depositsdenominated in Hong Kong dollars and US dollars. The Group’s borrowings were principallymade on floating rate basis.

The objective of the Group’s treasury policies is to minimise risks and exposures due to thefluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Group does not have anysignificant interest rate risk, as both the borrowings of the Group and the interest rates currentlyremain at low levels. In terms of foreign exchange exposures, the Group is principally exposed totwo major currencies, namely the US dollar in terms of receipts and the Renminbi in terms of theproduction costs (including mainly wages and overhead) in China. For US dollar exposure, sincethe Hong Kong dollar remains pegged to the US dollar, the exchange fluctuation is not expected tobe significant. In addition, as most of the Group’s purchases are also made in US dollars, whichare to be paid out of our sales receipts in US dollars, the management considers that the foreignexchange exposure risk for the US dollar is not material.

For Renminbi exposure, as our wages and overheads in our factories in China are paid inRenminbi, our production costs will be increased by the possible further appreciation of Renminbi.Any further appreciation of the Renminbi in future will be of concern to all manufacturers withmanufacturing facilities in China.

12. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The Group had a contingent liability in respect of possible future long service payments toemployees under the Hong Kong Employment Ordinance, with a maximum possible amountof HK$0.3 million as at 30 June 2007 (31 December 2006: HK$0.3 million). The contingentliability have arisen as a number of current employees have achieved the required numberof years of service to the Group in order to be eligible for long service payments under theEmployment Ordinance if their employment is terminated under certain circumstances. Aprovision has not been recognised in respect of such possible payments, as it is notconsidered probable that the situation will result in a material future outflow of resourcesfrom the Group.

Notes:

1. The exercise price of the share options is subject to adjustment(s) in the case of rights or bonus share issues, or othersimilar changes in the share capital of the Company.

2. The price of the Shares as at the date of grant of the share options is the closing price of the Shares as listed on the StockExchange on the trading day immediately before the date on which the share options were granted.

3. The price of the Shares as at the date of exercise of the share options is the weighted average of the closing prices of theShares as listed on the Stock Exchange on the trading days immediately before the dates on which the share options wereexercised.

The Directors do not consider it appropriate to disclose a theoretical value of the share optionsgranted during the period because a number of factors crucial for the valuation cannot bedetermined. Accordingly, any valuation of the share options based on various speculativeassumptions would not be meaningful, but would be misleading to the Shareholders.

PURCHASE, SALE OR REDEMPTION OF THE LISTED SHARES

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries had purchased, sold or redeemed any of the listedShares during the six months ended 30 June 2007.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE CODE ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCEPRACTICES

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

In the opinion of the Directors, the Company has complied with the code provisions under theCode set out in Appendix 14 to the Listing Rules throughout the period for the six months ended30 June 2007, except for the following deviations from the code provisions of the Code:

Code Provision A.2.1

There is no separation of the roles of chairman and chief executive officer as set out in the codeprovision A.2.1.

Mr. Mak Shiu Tong, Clement currently assumes the roles of both the Chairman and the CEO. Mr.Mak has substantial experience and a firmly established reputation in the telecom industry that isessential to fulfilling the role of the Chairman. At the same time, Mr. Mak has the appropriatemanagement skills and business acumen that are the pre-requisites for assuming the role of theCEO in the day-to-day management of the Group. The Board is composed of five executivedirectors (including the Chairman) and three INEDs with a balance of skills and experienceappropriate for the requirements of the Group. Furthermore, the roles of the managing director andthe general managers of the Company’s major operating subsidiaries are performed by otherindividuals. The Board believes that there is no need to segregate the roles of the Chairman andthe CEO as the balance of power and authority is already ensured by the current structure. TheBoard does not believe that the separation of the roles of the Chairman and the CEO will improvethe corporate performance.

Code Provision A.4.1

The code provision A.4.1 provides that non-executive directors should be appointed for a specificterm, subject to re-election.

Page 40: 00. IFC (p1-2) 87739 chairman’s letter CCT Tech International Limited 3 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS Six months ended 30 June 2007 2006 HK$ million (Unaudited) (Unaudited) Revenue 1,562

o t h e r i n f o r m a t i o n

39C C T T e c h I n t e r n a t i o n a l L i m i t e d

None of the existing INEDs of the Company is appointed for a specific term. However, all INEDsof the Company are subject to retirement by rotation and re-election at least once every three yearsat the AGM of the Company in accordance with the bye-laws of the Company.

Code Provision A.4.2

The code provision A.4.2 provides that all directors appointed to fill a casual vacancy should besubject to election by the shareholders at the first general meeting after their appointment. Everydirector, including those appointed for a specific term, should be subject to retirement by rotationat least once every three years.

In accordance with the bye-laws of the Company, any Director appointed to fill a casual vacancyshall hold office only until the next following AGM of the Company and shall then be eligible forre-election. The Board considers that such a deviation is not material as casual vacancy seldomhappens and duration between appointment to fill casual vacancy and the immediate followingAGM of the Company is less than one year and is considered to be short.

Pursuant to the bye-laws of the Company, the Chairman and the managing Director shall not besubject to retirement by rotation or also not be taken into account in determining the number ofDirectors to retire in each year. The Board considers that the continuity of the Chairman and hisleadership will be essential for the stability of the key management of the Board. On the otherhand, the Board will ensure that the Directors other than the Chairman will rotate at least onceevery three years in order to comply with the code provision A.4.2.

Other information on the corporate governance practices of the Company has been disclosed in thecorporate governance report contained in the 2006 Annual Report of the Company issued in April2007.
